Its a piece of piss to publish a book these days. Now digital printing is here you can have realy short print runs too.

Publish it your self or ther are many online companies that will do it for about £100.

All you need to do to technically be published is get and ISBN number (under £40) and then send copies of your book to the appropriate libraries. These seven libraries contain all published material in the UK.

I'm currently writing a book in my spare time and have been quoted under a fiver per unit to print a run of 200 A4 200 page b/w inner, gloss colour cover books. I'll prob go full colour which is £14 per unit.
